Warriors point guard Stephen Curry, who has not played since March 11 after once again tweaking his right ankle, flew to Los Angeles on Thursday to meet with foot and ankle specialist Dr. Richard Ferkel, the San Francisco Chronicle is reporting.

But Warriors GM Larry Riley insisted, "He would love to play. In fact, that's been one of the problems. He's wanted to be out there probably before he should have at times. He wants to play, but he also has gained an awful lot of wisdom."

Riley said the team will not let Curry back on the court until doctors consider him 100 percent healthy. As the Chronicle notes, that seems unlikely before the Warriors season ends on April 26, but Riley believes there’s some value to having him return.

"To prove to himself and to put his own mind at ease," Riley said. "It's a season that's been very frustrating for him."
